My dad recently gave me a bundle of old photos and documents. Among these was my own identity card, issued in January 1948 by the National Registration Office. Our original address is recorded as Whaleys Croft, Coventry QDA and subsequently Whoberley Hostels, Coventry QDA. Anyone any idea what the acronym QDA stands for? |

I have found my husbands as well, he lived in Tamworth and there are no letters after that so it looks like it was something specific to Coventry but I have so far not been able to find anything about it ! |

It's the NHS area code for the Coventry enumeration district as on this list. |

I assumed that QDA was an acronym and so had been wasting my time trying to make a sensible three word phrase. Thanks, I was confident a forum member would crack it. |
